*ahem* Of course... an instance of a model doesn't have access to application_controller's methods... I was getting carried away with myself. You will *also* need to pass this to the Post directly... so declare an "attr_writer :current_user" on your Post model, and in the controller, when you instanciate the Post, pass it the variable: post = Post.find(params[:post_id] # or whatever... post.current_user = current_user -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
